Paul J. Steinhardt

Paul Joseph Steinhardt is a theoretical physicist specializing in cosmology and condensed matter physics.

He is the Albert Einstein Professor in Science at Princeton University.

Steinhardt is renowned for developing new theories about the universe's origin, evolution, and future.

He also made significant contributions to the study of quasicrystals, discovering the first known natural quasicrystal in a museum sample and leading expeditions to find more in Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula.

His work has challenged established cosmological models and expanded our understanding of matter's structure.
